Well, then call me Hypoxia because I would prefer to remain barren of harvestable biomass in this euphemism for heterosexual relations.

Who said i was going for a metaphor?

A few choices:

The Pacific Northwest
Alaska
Chicago
Key West
New York
Jackson Hole, Wyoming
My current home in Brownsburg, Indiana.

I like the idea of living in NY. It's always a great place to be. People you meet there seem to have alot in common with Londoners; they're kinda grumpy & mean & opinionated but friendly & welcoming in a slightly sinister heavy drinking sort of way. But I have a feeling that actually living there might be not be so good as I imagine.

I've enjoyed Seattle too (only been there twice) & Chicago (once). These places are cool and in general don't seem to have that horrible "have a nice day!", "you're welcome", “how are you today Sir?” unnecessary politeness thing going on that you sometimes find in the states.

I would kill myself if I had to live in San Francisco... bunch of vegan-health-freak-killjoys I met there. Same goes for Vancouver.

Probably because those zoo elephants are injection molded plastic,
not wax.

And you'd want plastic bears, not elephants, anyway:

Well, I live in Michigan right now, and have things going on that I don't want to lose, but if I could live anywhere else, I'd live in either Chicago or New York in the spring and summer and either Florida or San Francisco in the fall and winter. Hope that's good enough.

Seattle, WA
Olympia, WA
NYC
Chicago, IL
Portland, OR

yeah, I love filthy urban places, just like Buenos Aires.

I don't think of Seattle or Portland as particularly "filthy." Chicago either, except for the impoverished parts.

I like Chicago well enough... but I also like getting out! Ideally I'd be migratory... how about 6 months in chicago as home base, Southwest / West coast tours in the over the winters, a fall cabin just outside of seattle or portland and a 2-week stay in NYC every few months.

sweeeeet...

yeah, thats what i would to do someday, to live a few months somewhere else and then comeback, and then doing it all over again.

I'd like to live in Utah, at least for a bit. A very underrated state in my opinion. The Southern bits around Bryce/Zion/Arches are gorgeous. Still, the lack of a big music scene is a bit of a drawback. Pacific Northwest would be nice.

Another underrated state is Bradley R. Weissenberger's home of Idaho, Italia. *Disclaimer* I have not made it there yet, but the photos make it seem lovely.
